Beuchat Competitions have very good foot pockets (though that's very individual and subjective). I found the competition blades rather stiff at the beginning and difficult for surface swimming, but get used to them after a time. You can also get softer blades for them. And carbon blades are available too - very nicely made, but quite expensive (350€).
I broke a blade after about three years of use. Others who I know use these fins and dive frequently break blades regularly too, but since the plastic blades are rather inexpensive (around 20€ piece), it is not that bad.
The disatvantage may be the different format of the blade, so you won't easily mount blades that are made for the Sporasub / Omer footpockets.
